"Remember princess, there are many, many stars in the sky. So why only reach for one when you can have as many as you can fill your dream pockets with?"

As book opens, we find a slight shift to the older generation as Zane and Erin are getting closer. Can they both get past their histories and find each other?

We literally find ourselves doing some underground exploring as the ground gives way to open some cracks in the walls of closed off people just as Uncle Zane's family arrives for the festivities around the weddings. Not everyone is happy though and I guess we'll have to wait for the next book for answers. Highly Recommended 5/5

Lilly and Caleb are being held hostage. After deciding to trust each other, they tell each other the secrets of their past. Michael was shot during the abduction and Kelsey is one the the doctors taking care of him. Caleb and Lilly know the only way they can make their relationship work is to trust each other completely. Great story, romance, suspense and Erin being a mother hen. These books just keep getting better and better. Can’t help but wonder what is coming next.

The mystery continues and more secrets are revealed in book 3. This is the hallmark of Amy Rafferty's writing style, a chaotic, free-wielding, slap in characters to confuse the reader, plot.
In this episode, the reader finds out that while Caleb and Lily are abducted they discover that they have deep feelings for each other. They are worried about Michael and Kelsey, because shots were fired while they were being kidnapped from the church.
The cast of characters keeps growing. Let's see what happens next.

What will happen next?

I liked that Book 3 was fast paced and full of action As some mysteries were solved, new ones cropped up, which kept me guessing at what was going to happen next. I really liked that I was not good at figuring things out. There was also romance brewing between Caleb and Lilly and of course a cliffhanger at the end. Unfortunately Lilly seemed to have a knack for bad exes with Aiden and Miles. I received an advance copy of this book and I willingly chose to write an honest review.

Another thrilling read in the White Sands story. This series is keeping my heart pounding and my jaw dropping at each cliffhanger ending. Nothing runs smooth for the group at White Sands. As soon as one problem gets solved, another pops up, keeping the reader guessing....highly recommend. I received an advance copy of this book and this is my honest review.

After the mystery behind Erin, Caleb and Kelsey is resolved we go back to the tunnels and new shocking events where some of the newly arrived characters get involved.
I felt lost near the end of the book with so many characters appearing suddenly, but still 5 stars well-deserved.
